“A chill little bakery with fantastic pastries, cookies and croissants, as well as quality coffee. Also ordered a cake for my husband's birthday and it was a major hit!“

“No other bakery like Seylou. We travel in to the city every weekend to eat here. The staff is so kind and feels like an extension of our family. They’ve taken my child behind the scenes and shown him how grains are killed and bread is baked. I could not ask for a better community and diet staple.“

“the sweet pasties here are phenomenal, as is their classic viet coffee. the savory pasties, especially the breakfast items are bland and underwhelming. consider adding a special sauce maybe? service is prompt and somehow always find a place to sit even tho its packed.“

“Highly recommended! Very delicious food, excellent service, and absolutely great place.“

“Classic Bakery made a delicious and beautiful birthday cake for a special birthday celebration!! My lactose free requedt was honored and handled with care. My friend was delighted with her birthday surprise. Thank you, ɔBakery“

“This place was an absolute gem during our week-long stay in DC. We visited it a whopping five times! We had such a great time, especially when we made a funny joke about breakfast for the next morning. 😂 Because we had already eaten it .“

“It was a phenomenal experience! The staff were friendly and catered to our every need. They were very patient when we were trying the samples and the presentation of the cones and cups was just great. A MUST TRY! The ice cream tho? DELICIOUS!“

“Huge cookie! And they are delicious. I couldn't eat one in a sitting but it was nice to get essentially two cookies for one. The cookies were really good nailing the texture, and sweetness. My oatmeal raisin cookie had the perfect reason to cookie ratio, I can tell they spent time in the lab on that one. If you're walking M street after a good meal this is a place that I'd recommend stopping into for a nice dessert.“

“I ordered a cake on Thursday at 1 pm to be picked up 4:30 pm on Friday for a birthday party. The man who picked up the phone was so accommodating and made sure that the customized message had the correct spelling of my name. When the cake was picked up, the lady was extremely lovely and kind. 10/10 would recommend and will be buying another birthday cake (very soon) from this bakery. I have also visited this bakery before to buy a n emergency cake and they have lots in the display case available. Perfect, delicious cakes. The one I got (raspberry chocolate mouse) was semi sweet and light, good for adults.“

“Charming bakery with not-too-sweet-desserts. Delicious tiramisu - this cake was gone minutes after blowing out the candles!

The owners had great communication for placing and picking up a full cake order. A special thank you for taking on my special request to decorate the cake with Russian writing! It came out perfectly beautiful and made my mom very happy :)“

“We had a great lunch! Highly recommended! 😋😋😋“

“We’ve always loved Baked & Wired’s goods, and we knew they would make the perfect cake for our wedding day. Of course, they delivered. Baked & Wired was very easy to work with and the cake was just right! Our guests loved it, and we can’t wait to eat the last slice on our one year anniversary!“

“Stopped by after seeing high reviews. The atmosphere of the place is really nice. There’s quiet spaces to study. There’s cute little gifts you can purchase. However, the pistachio chocolate croissant I tried wasn’t good. I don’t like the taste of pistachio paste. Also it wasn’t fresh.“

“Awesome pastries, bread and other baked goods. Very creative seasonal menu that uses fruit and veggies at the peak of their flavor. Love love love it!“

“Delicious cookies and always friendly staff. Great for celebrations or just a treat to brighten your or someone else’s day! Something for everyone’s taste. There are a few regular flavors (sugar, chocolate chip…) and then 4 or more other flavors that change each week. I recommend placing your order on the app. You’ll get points toward free cookies and a cookie on your bday.“

“Great food, fun atmosphere. Miguel was the best! Would visit again!“

“Black sesame cake is delicious 😋“

“Delicious sweet treats and great savory breakfast / lunch options too. The baleada - delicious stretchy tortilla over eggs, refried beans, avocado - was perfect paired with a latte. Seating for maybe 20ish in a bright comfy space, but it can get a little tight during busier periods“

“Bread Alley is a handy bakery for picking up fresh bread and a pastry or two. I went in during the morning and tried a savory pastry along with one of their breads. The pastry had a flaky exterior and a good amount of filling, while the bread had a crisp crust and soft center. The selection was varied enough to find something for breakfast or to take home.“

“Very beautiful area. The quiche was the best I’ve ever had! Very cozy place.“

“The pastry selection at Paris Baguette made it easy to put together a little breakfast spread. We tried the almond croissant, ham and cheese pastry, and a slice of strawberry cake. The croissant had crisp, flaky layers with a sweet almond filling, while the ham and cheese pastry was savory and filling. The strawberry cake was light with just the right amount of sweetness. Everything looked fresh, and the variety made it easy to find something for everyone.“

“Perfect for a quick coffee and croissant, or for sitting down and getting some work done. It’s conveniently located near the garage and Rockville Memorial Library. They also have birthday cakes! The prices are very reasonable, and I loved their coffee and pain au chocolat! 🙏“

“Delicious, fresh French pastry, ambient atmosphere and super friendly owner!“

“Trader Joe’s stopped carrying their Morning Glory muffins during Covid and I have been so sad but I discovered Sunflower Bakery and theirs are amazing!!!! Thank you I am so happy!!!!!“

“Sonia was so wonderful to work with for our wedding. We requested a smaller cake for the cake-cutting portion and sheet cakes for our guests. We loved the vanilla cake, buttercream frosting, and raspberry jam filling. She created a beautiful cake that both matched our aesthetic and was so delicious I still have friends coming up to me asking for a reminder of who the baker was! It was a hit with both our vegan and non-vegan guests. I highly recommend All American Vegan for your next event.“

“It was my first time going to this place , the staff can try to be more welcoming and pleaseant and help they clients to order , I had to take my mask off to speak and let them know what i wanted and as i was ordering I felt like i was being rushed to order , the food was tasting but tge owner needs to change the way the food is charged , I was charge for each separate item this is not a place where you order yourself a complete meal for a full charge , the food was delicious but I would not go back and another turn off in the bakery area they had flies around the sweet bread .“

“Love this coffee shop! I love local owned coffee shops, and this is a gem in MoCo, where it can be difficult to find coffee shops that are not chains. The pastries are magnificent and the coffee is great! I have both dined in and done take out, and never had a bad experience. They are also dog friendly!“

“Besides delicious pastries, the best part of Boulangerie Christophe is the staff! Super friendly and kind to everyone who walks through the door. The gourmet sandwiches are a huge hit for my 15-year-old son too.“

“Never have I ever tasted such incredibly delicious Chocolate Pistachio Baklava!!! Parsa Bakery is a true McLean treasure from warm welcoming Sarah to the European Middle Eastern specialty items. The pastries are baked fresh daily on-site and you'll have to taste them to believe it!“

“This new spot in Tysons Corner is a gem. The chef is the owner they make gourmet handmade desserts whether it’s fresh baklava or Opera cake or tiramisu fresh croissants Not to mention eclair they do Maid to order birthday cakes event events highly recommend them. They’re right across the street from the Westin hotel. He sells out quickly“

“Great cakes and bread, everything was delicious!“

“Great location. Worth the price! Friendly staff! Delicious food and drinks. Clean and welcoming establishment.“

“My coworkers loved the pastries! Thank you!“

“I stopped by after spotting the shop in passing and picked up some pastries to try. I didn't think much of it at first, but wow. Every bite blew my mind. Even cold, the scones are incredible, buttery and crispy, yet soft with fresh pops of fruit. The peach one is a must have. The pesto tomato mozzarella danish was delicious, with a delicate flaky base and fresh pesto on top. I can't recommend enough!“

“Nums Yums provides delicious high quality baking! I was very happy with my recent order. Numrah goes above and beyond to make sure each order is handled promptly and with care.“

“The cinnamon rolls are so amazing. Tasted like the real (gluten) thing. I’m very picky with cinnamon rolls and I read other reviews so the expectation was high, but it exceeded my expectations. I was so happy to see the large menu and so many options“

“The customer service is superb every time I have visited. My favorite is their mango cake and the shortbread cookie. Great ambience!“

“The cookies are so fresh and full of flavor. Also am a big fan of the coffee.“

“Such good macarons. The texture was just right and the flavor are so tasty. The strawberry reminded me if fresh strawberry ice cream. My wife loved the gingerbread and pumpkin spice. Will be ordering again!“

“I have been going to Best Buns for over 15 years. The bakery products are consistently wonderful across all the locations, and their service is amazing. They just proved it to me again today! One of the staff, well-trained in customer service and whose name unfortunately I did not catch, brought to a manager’s attention that this is the second time a mistake has been made on my online order. The manager, Zach, apologized but also gave me a very generous credit. Best Buns is opening a new location in Falls Church, and I’m very excited that now it will be even closer to home. Keep up the great customer service. It’s a rare pleasure these days.“

“My first visit, the shredded pork was super amazing and so was the Chinese Pizza with eggs. These are like appetizers. Went back for my birthday.... LOVE 💞 this spot, want to buy everything.“

“Dakota and her colleagues clearly work their hardest at an often packed Maman location. While sometimes an overwhelming crowd might cause slight delays, it’s reasonable and worth the wait given the care with which the staff treats the prep of food and drinks. I keep coming back. Thanks for looking out for me when I dropped my coffee as well…“
